Online Card Classes - Stenciled

When I saw Jennifer McGuire was teaching an online card class using fun stencils I immediately was intrigued. Then, I saw the price, and I was on board immediately. Now, the class has started and I can't believe all the creative overload I'm in after just watching day one's inspiration! Wow! So, here is my first card using the stenciling techniques. I combined Julie's simple distress ink and stencil technique along with the masking from Jennifer's layering videos and voila! So, excited to have taken the time to get inky today! 

Using a The Crafter's Workshop template; Laina Lamb designed stamps for My Favorite Things, Distress Inks in (barn door, spiced marmalade, mustard seed, shabby shutters, and broken china) and Hero Arts neon purple. Even dipped into my really old stash of Doodlebug borders! 

Holy Moly, TEN DAYS!

Where did the last 10 days go? I have no idea. All I know is that today is my last day of EDF677, and I have a lot of work to do to finish up. But finish, I will.

In other news, be looking for a happy, scrappy announcement tomorrow, June 1st! Som exciting stuff happening. 

To hold you over, here's my latest layout posted on the Simple Stories blog using the I {Heart} Summer line.

The photos are from our first week in Flagstaff last summer. It was so beautiful up here. Taylor and I fell in love with our surroundings instantly. In addition to the SS line, I also snagged a piece of my Jillibean Soup Placemat from a recent Cocoa Daisy Kit to frame my focal photo. Those placemats are a fun little item from the Jillibean lines! 

I'm off to a meeting at the university and then to bury my head in my computer to finish my class before the weekend! Have a good one all!
